Record Data

1.Confirm the input of streaming data through the live playback feature.

2.Click the Record button.

RECORD button =

5.Enter the name and location for the pcap file to be created.

6.Recording begins immediately once the file information has been entered.

7.Click Record again to discontinue the capture.

8.String multiple recordings together on the same file by performing the Record function repeatedly. A new file name isn’t requested until after the session has been aborted.

An Ethernet capture utility, such as Wireshark, can also be used as a pcap capture utility.

Playback of Recorded Files

1.Use the File > Open command to open a previously captured pcap file for playback. The DSR playback controls are similar to any DVD/VCR control features.

2.Press the Play button to render the file. The Play button toggles to a Pause button when in playback mode.
